Thanks for looking, Ichitoe.

 

I hadn't given the masking for the camo on this one much thought yet.

I'm defintiely going to use tape on RADM Gilchrist's Tiger. Putting decals on the silver F-5F has made clear that these are small models so I'm leaning towards tape on this as well.

 

Cheers, Stefan.

Hi,

 

The group build is nearing the end, time to finish my two F-5E's.

Construction is nearly complete, they are obviously very simple kits and I'm not doing anything special. So, I'll post pictures when they both have their first coat of paint. I hope to have them done by sunday evening.

 

Cheers, Stefan.

Hi,

 

Well, it's sunday evening and this one has its second camo colour.

She looks pretty cool from 6 feet away, but up close...

The camo scheme was done with some artistic licence and something horrible happened to the windscreen (it's probably glue and it has bitten deeply).

 

I might try a fourth F-5 for this GB, the one from 1976 in the Ferris scheme.

 

Cheers, Stefan.

Hi,

 

Am I glad that the finish date is the 3rd of March, not the 1st! I had a busy week and didn't think I'd be able to finish this one in time.

This one should be done by sunday night. The two other Tigers not, but I'll post pictures of them in their threads when they're done (not in the gallery).

 

Cheers, Stefan.

Hi,

 

Luckily, this one did not need a lot of decals.

I hope to finish the others I started  later on. They are not exactly the best models around, but grouped together (and from a distance) they may look kinda cool. The on in the back needs to be repainted entirely.
